Hypothesizing a St. Louis Cardinals' trade for Carlos Carrasco

Third time's the charm, right? Up to this point (and this could still change this season), St. Louis Cardinals general manager John Mozeliak has whiffed on two trades with the Cleveland Indians: the first being James Ramsey for Justin Masterson in 2014 and the second being Rob Kaminsky for Brandon Moss just last season. As winter meeting have officially commenced in Nashville, Tennessee, a hypothetical third trade would involve Indians' staff ace Carlos Carrasco, who is under guaranteed contract through 2018 (3 years, $19 million left on his contract) with super team-friendly club options for 2019 and 2020 at $9 million and $9.
